A Noble cause - Gawad Kalinga

Life is good. It has always been and will always be. I've traveled to places, ate good food, shopped till I dropped, tried different sports and engaged in different adventures. I feel blessed to have so much fun-filled expereinces and bold undertakings in my life, so I guess it's time to give back something to my community and fellowmen.

Not to long ago, I attended a talk about the Gawad Kalinga Foundation and was moved by mission of it's founder Mr. Tony Meloto. In my lifetime, only few have I encountered a man with such clean and pure intention to help others. A very selfless and honorable man in it's truest sense!

And so, I was moved and decide to help out. Those of you out there that are thinking of ways to help out, I suggest you to volunteer yourself and help out any Gawad Kalinga (GK) Projects. I'm pretty sure this is something you will be proud of. :-)
